“…Hepatic α-TPP has the greatest affinity for α-tocopherol compared to γ-tocopherol and is crucial for the relative percentage of transport of various vitamin E forms in plasma lipoproteins. High intake of α-tocopherol may reduce intestinal absorption, cell membrane transport, and utilization of other forms of tocopherols, especially γ-tocopherol [ 42 ]. Furthermore, γ-tocopherol intake was negatively associated with plasma α-tocopherol [ 9 ].…”

“…Tocotrienols and tocopherols possess a common chemical structure of a chromonal ring and a side chain with the exception that the former has an unsaturated isoprenoid side chain when compared with the latter with a saturated phytyl tail. Studies have shown varying potencies of these isoforms on different biological functions (Burton and Ingold 1989;Komiyama and others 1989;Friderich 2004).…”
